Description

The Speedy Boss, previously known as the Boss3, is a large and fast enemy that appears in Casual, Challenge Trials, Legacy Molten and Intermediate modes. It can also appear in Basic Arena PVP, but there it is only seen if sent by a player. It has less health than the Slow Boss, but it makes up for that in its speed, having the same speed as the Hidden. The Speedy Boss has no immunities.

The Speedy Boss can be spawned from the Mystery Boss upon its death in Legacy Molten mode.

Strategy

• Early-game towers like the Militant, Toxic Gunner, Cowboy, Ace Pilot and Military Base can do quite well against this.
  • DPS towers like the Accelerator, Minigunner or Ranger can also be used, though they are not necessary, especially in easier modes.
• As the Speedy Boss is quite fast, stalling towers like the Freezer, Electroshocker, Warden or Brawler can be used to slow it down.
  • Do note that its size will make it affected less by various forms of stalling, such as freeze or knockback.

Trivia

• The original name and appearance of the Speedy Boss was based on the Boss3 from Tower Battles.
• When the Uber Mystery was in the game, it had a chance of spawning the Speedy Boss upon its death in Golden and Fallen modes.
• The Speedy King can be considered as a Hardcore variant of the Speedy Boss.
• The skull shoulder pads used by the fifth appearance of the Speedy Boss are re-textured versions of the The Riddling Skull accessory from the Roblox catalog.
• Despite being a boss version of the Speedy, the third and fourth versions of the Speedy Boss looked more similar to the Quick than the Speedy.
• Oddly, in v1.23.0, the appearance of the Speedy Boss was not updated to always use the Enemies Beta appearance like how other Molten mode enemies were.
  • This is most likely due to the fact that the Speedy Boss did not appear in Easy mode at the time, since the Molten mode enemies that had their appearances changed also appeared in Easy mode.
• The "32" writing on the side-end of the Speedy Boss's metal booster is a reference to the 32 meme within the Tower Defense Simulator community.
• The word "Durablox" written on the batteries is a portmanteau of Duracell, which is a real-life battery brand, and Roblox.
